I’m designing software and brands since 2007. I think modular, opinionated and long-term. I use AI to enhance my work, not to replace it.

@TweetsOfSumit Uh, gute Idee mit dem Hüttenkäse!

After almost 20 years in design, I just opened my first PR and merged it into the live environment of a real client's product. Feels surreal.

@darylginn Less, but better

@vanschneider Happy Father's Day. First one here. Didn't expect it to hit this hard.

[Alex @blumio]

@Tristanrhee3 The output looks okayish. That's the problem.

[Alex @blumio]

@DanielSmidstrup Tell a client their brief is wrong and make them thank me for it.

[Alex @blumio]

@pmitu Knowing why you hit it. Most don't.

@yahyavision Pushing pixels for https://t.co/MT47v8LaeT - currently working on an agentic UI to automatically review and approve orders

@DannPetty But without designers in management, it's unfortunately still not easy.

[Alex @blumio]

@UltraLinx Agree! gaming led me to design, and I've learned more about economics and business in @kalonline than anywhere else. Are you still pushing in @PlayApex ?

[Alex @blumio]

AI democratizes answers. Not understanding.

[Alex @blumio]

In a time where everyone can build anything, relevance is the differentiator. Creating new things is not designing. Good solutions last because there is nothing left to take away.

@justin_schueler @Apple Absolutely, it's totally weird, but once you've done it and it becomes part of the ecosystem (photos / search / display in external calendars), it starts to make sense. Seems like a typical Apple thing.

[Alex @blumio]

@justin_schueler @Apple Why does it make sense to you to have two separate data instances for different types of information? If you think of a contact as a container and consider phone numbers, addresses, or even birthdates as optional fields, it makes perfect sense.

@AdamWhitcroft Hamilton is a good starter https://t.co/tvBjf5sZoo

@niclasernst wood + raw concrete ♥️

[Alex @blumio]

For days, my feed has been all about how bad the new Apple design language is... It's always easy to criticise and very difficult to create something new yourself. Chapeau to all creators who prefer to use their time to create rather than criticise. Back to work.

[Alex @blumio]

Lets go!
